I mean we gather these black rocks called silicone and refine them, then we cut them to plates and inscribe them with microscopic runes using light and very secret mixtures. Next we use lighting on it to make it think for us.
Look at what you did. You took perfectly good sand and gave it anxiety
Even more simplistic: we take rocks and etch runes onto them, shoot them with electricity to make them think.
Also, I think you meant silicon. Silicone is what flashlights are made of... Which would also blow the minds of less advanced cultures: "You craft soft holes from rocks mixed with glues and you fuck it?"
I read some other word instead of flashlight and I almost threw up in laughter.
That other word IS what they meant!
No you read that right. My autocorrect is thinking like a Puritan sometimes.
